At the commencement of the hearing, the Committee was informed that Mr C J De Fillipi, co-trainer and driver of PERDITION, had advised the Stipendiary Stewards that he did not wish to appear at the protest hearing. He was already on the track for Race 3. The Committee noted that the stake payable for 4th placing in the Race was $165. The hearing proceeded in his absence.
